一、选词填空
Unit1
Good communication is the key to success when leaning online. You should take the
opportunity to get to know your teacher and classmates through email and by participating in Internet discussion. This will lead to a more positive and rewarding learning experience.
It’s true that learning the technology needed to take part in a class can at times be frustrating For example, you may need to ask how to post your assignment on the Wed. But, don’t worry! If you have a problem, ask for help. There’s no such thing as a stupid question, so there is no need to be intimidated or embarrassed. Sharing insight and answers freely is what makes the Internet such a great medium for learning.
Online classroom teacher Mike Roberts was asked about what he thought the greatest benefit of online learning is. “As a teacher, I need the student to ask questions so that I know what areas of my lessons need further explanation. That’s what is great about teaching and learning over the Internet. In an ordinary classroom, time is limited, so students seem to ask the minimum amount of questions possible. But in the virtual classroom ,students are always asking questions. They really seem to feel comfortable, asking me for the information that they need. They also share a lot of valuable ideas with each other in a way that you don’t usually see in a regular classroom.”
Unit2
I have to you about the way you dress. I was a little intimidated to comment in person, so I am writing instead. I hope this doesn’t upset you ,but something has to be done. I must appeal to you start dressing like mom.
Your unique sense of fashion is more like a sister’s than a mother’s. Personally, it’s embarrassing to have a mom who dresses younger than I do. Your wear T-shirt with torn jeans and your nose is pierced .My friends say it’s strange ,but I think they’re being a little too negative . It’s most likely because their boyfriends think you are pretty. Still, if you want me to have any friends in this community, it is vital that you remove the ring from your nose and start dressing like the other moms. Don’t your peers ever show any concern？
Don’t you remember how horrible being a teenager can be ? I feel awful because I think people of my age would rather talk to you than to me. Last week at the shopping center, I had the absolutely worst experience of my life. The young man who took our money asked if you were my older sister. I thought he would likely ask you out if I hadn’t said “Thanks, mom” to you. It was disgusting.
Unit 3
Some people just can’t keep from giving. That was the way it was with my neighbor. Despite being crippled, she was very active. In fact, she seemed to do more for the community every day than I ever do in a year’s time. I was always amazed at the pace she kept. On Mondays and Fridays, she worked at a college giving students guidance on what career to choose. On Tuesdays and Thursdays she helped out at a church that gave aid to people without homes. And on

the weekends, she taught local kids who needed extra help with their schoolwork. And most importantly, she always had a positive attitude. I don’t remember once hearing her complain about her troubles. The stresses of everyday life never seemed to bother her. Instead, she looked for every occasion she could find to spread her good humor around. I remember when I had just lost my job. She took a day off from work to spend time with me and listen to my trifles. She never once became impatient with my complaints. She never acted like there was anything in this word more important than what I had to say.
What I regret now is not having ever really done anything for her. I suppose she never needed it.
Unit 4
“So, how about your interview?”
“The whole thing was bad from the beginning. I entered the room with confidence and gave the woman a strong handshake. She said I squeezed too hard and hurt her. I had a real hard time communicating with her after that.” “What do you mean?”
“Well, it was pretty apparent that I failed to persuade to hire me. I tired to make eye contact with her, but she kelp looking away, which made me think she wasn’t very focused or interested in what I was saying.”
“I know what you mean. It can be so stressful being interviewed for a job. It’s very depressing when you don’t get any encouragement from the person who is asking you question. But, don’t worry. I’m sure you made a better impression than what you think.”
“I don’t think I impressed her at all. I was really bothered that she kelp looking away, only interrupting me once in a while to throw in a word or two. I had to get her attention by making big gestures and changing the tone of my voice. I don’t think I have ever had such a horrible experience.”
Unit 5
AIDS has emerged as the world’s biggest problem over the past 25 years. The epidemic
touched the lives of people around the world, but no other place had been plagued like Africa. In Africa 20 million people were infected with the disease in 1999. That number continues to grow. Africa has accounted for nearly four out of five AIDS related deaths in the world. It is estimated that as of 1999, 13 million children had lost their parents to AIDS. Although there is no cure, people in more developed countries can get medicine to help. In Africa though, most do not have access to new medicines. Most people neglect going to the doctor to find out if they have the disease. Because they have not been diagnosed with the illness, they continue to spread the disease without knowing it. Many men leave their rural homes to find work. This threatens many people when the workers have AIDS and their behavior is not safe.
In response to this crisis, many groups have set up programs. The goal is to educate people about AIDS. It is difficult to implement such programs, though, because of poor literacy rates. Some education programs have worked, though. One such project combats people’s fear of getting tested for AIDS. Other campaigns focus on schooling for the poor.
